Horror in the Ravine Chapter 22 The Roof Leaks and the Rain
The three of us took turns "teasing" Toast for a few rounds, and although he couldn't hurt us for a while, the tomb was only so big after all, and we couldn't get close to the exit for long.
"It can't go on like this, we have to find a way!"
I shouted to Lao Lin Tou and Qiu Yan, but at such a time, how could they come up with any other way?
The three of them froze for a moment, and finally they all shook their heads at each other.
I thought to myself that this is good, I was not strangled to death by this toast, but I was going to be tired to death by him!
As the saying goes, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind, and when we were unable to protect ourselves, Xiang Wei didn't know when he got in.
He pressed his face against the gap in the exit and shouted, "Qiu Yan, what's wrong, Qiu Yan, are you okay?" ”
Didn't I say you TM said you have claustrophobia? Why do you still drill into it at every turn! It's just this kind of time!
Qiu Yan was probably the same as me at this time, but I saw her standing in the corner of the tomb and shouting loudly at the exit:
"What are you running down for? Get out! ”
Although standing in Qiu Yan's position, it is true that Xiang Wei can only hear it if he speaks loudly, but anyone can hear that Qiu Yan has anger in his words.
However, Xiang Wei was still shouting there as if he hadn't heard it: "What's wrong? What's wrong? ”
I just wanted to reply, "You have the strength to shout, you might as well save some effort to help us dig the hole."
But before I could speak, I found that Xiang Wei suddenly stopped calling.
My heart tightened, and I realized that something was wrong, so I quickly asked Qiu Yan and the others to lure the toast away, and I went over to see what was going on.
Sure enough, I ran over and looked through the gap to see that Xiang Wei was lying on the ground pinching his neck and kicking his legs!
"It's not good, Xiang Wei is poisoned!"
I shouted behind me, and then quickly took off my oxygen mask, trying to reach out and put it on Xiang Wei.
But first, the gap was too small for my hand to reach through, and secondly, Xiang Wei was unconscious and couldn't hear me greeting, so I probed hard for a long time, but I couldn't put the mask on him.
In desperation, I rolled over and removed the entire oxygen cylinder, and then extended the mask out again.
This time, without the shackles of oxygen cylinders, I seem to be able to get to Xiang Wei.
But at this moment, I heard Qiu Yan and Lao Lin Tou behind me shouting "Be careful".
I quickly looked back, only to find that the toast didn't know when he came behind me, I didn't have time to react, and suddenly the toast grabbed my ankle, and the toast wanted to lift me up, but my arm was stuck in the gap.
Toast, of course, didn't care if my arm was stuck or not, I just felt a sharp pain in my arm, and then I was hung upside down.
When I was a soldier in the past, I often engaged in pulling exercises, and of course I was inevitably injured, and to be honest, no matter how many injuries I had at that time, I didn't feel so painful.
After being pulled out by Toast, my first reaction was not that I was afraid of being caught by Toast, but that I was worried about my arm.
I looked over to my right hand and saw that the entire sleeve had been ripped off, the flesh on my arm was blurred, and it looked horrible and painful, and if it weren't for this kind of place, I would have lost a few drops of eye water.
At this time, I saw Qiu Yan holding a stick, and the old Lin Tou also rushed over with a fire hammer, and they took the guy and beckoned to the toast, looking at this scene, I couldn't help but boil my blood and began to struggle frantically, my hands kept tearing on the toast.
But one thing I forgot was that I wasn't wearing an oxygen mask, and the oxygen tank was still lying by the exit!
As a result, I soon felt that my throat was starting to breathe, and the image in front of me began to turn gray.
I knew that I had been poisoned and my body was gradually losing strength, but just before I could completely lose consciousness, I suddenly found that the body of the toast that had been torn off my clothes was densely covered with black thin threads, and the appearance of these thin threads seemed familiar to me.
However, before I had time to think, the feeling of suffocation in my throat came to me, and immediately after, my eyes turned from gray to dark, and I lost sight completely.
I don't know how long I lost consciousness, I just felt a sharp pain in the back of my head, then a tear in my lungs, and my consciousness returned.
When I regained consciousness, I saw Qiu Yan kneeling beside me, holding her oxygen mask to my face, while Lao Lin Tou was holding a firearm and attracting Tusi like a teaseful dog.
Qiu Yan was very embarrassed at this time, her hair was scattered, and she was dirty, but despite this, there were bursts of woman's fragrance wafting from her, and strangely, this fragrance made me feel at ease.
Gradually, I regained my strength, pushed the oxygen mask back to Qiu Yan, and then told her what I had found in Toast.
Qiu Yan nodded and said:
"I also noticed that those stripes may be his meridians, maybe he took some kind of medicine before he died, so they will only show up after death."
After Qiu Yan finished speaking, she handed me the mask again.
"But why does it sound familiar?" I said with a mask on.
Qiu Yan shook her head and said she didn't know.
I was still thinking about it, when Qiu Yan suddenly grabbed me and said:
"Don't worry about this for now, find a way to get out, Xiang Wei is still outside, and if he continues like this, he will die!"
I quickly followed Qiu Yan's strength to get up, and then pushed Qiu Yan to the exit.
"You go dig out the hole, and Master and I will lead the toast away!"
After speaking, I ran towards the old forest who was forced into the corner by Tusi, but who knew that I didn't run a few steps before I was pulled by Qiu Yan, she pointed to the oxygen cylinder at the entrance of the cave and said:
"You don't have an oxygen cylinder, you go dig out, I'll save your master!"
Qiu Yan didn't wait for me to say yes, she sped past me, and the moment she ran past, I suddenly caught a glimpse of her cloth bag hanging behind her waist, and my thoughts were clear at once.
Aren't the lines on the toast the runes on Qiu Yan's rune paper?
No, it should be said that the runes on Qiu Yan's rune paper are formed on the basis of the lines on Tusi's body!
But when I think about it, I still don't think this description is accurate, and I think there are some details that are not quite right.
At this time, Qiu Yan had already saved Lao Lintou, and when she saw that I was still stunned and motionless, she shouted:
"He Zimu, what are you doing there? Go dig it! ”
I was concentrating on my thoughts, and I was startled by Qiu Yan's drink, but this time I finally figured it out.
Qiu Yan's rune paper is wrong!
At first, I thought that Qiu Yan's runes were just another way to draw Chenzhou runes, but there was no record in the codex, but now, all my memories came flooding up, and the runes on the codex all followed the lines on Tusi's body, and the reason why Qiu Yan's runes were different was because there were a few details that were wrong.
I couldn't help but be overjoyed, thinking that this time I was saved!
At this time, I began to feel uncomfortable in my throat again, so I quickly ran to the oxygen cylinder, put on the oxygen mask, and when I left, I glanced at Xiang Wei outside.
Although Xiang Wei was still unconscious, he was still struggling, and I shouted at him:
"I'm sorry brother, you bear with it first, and I'll save you as soon as I finish the toast!"
I don't care if he can hear it or not, I will run to Qiu Yan after speaking.
Qiu Yan saw that I not only didn't dig out, but also ran over, so she asked angrily:
"He Zimu, don't you understand me? Do you have to be a hero at such a time? ”
I didn't have time to explain to her, so I tore off her cloth bag and asked:
"Do you have any blanks on that rune paper?"
Old Lin saw that Toast was coming towards us at this moment, so he shook his fire gun and twitched Toast twice, and shouted loudly:
"Hey, Living Ancestor, here, you're chasing me!"
I couldn't help but laugh when I heard this, if it weren't for this atmosphere, I would have thought that the old Lin Tou was playing with someone.
Qiu Yan was free, so she looked at me and asked:
"What do you want to do with the paper? Didn't you see it all just now? Useless! ”
I ignored her, rummaging through her cloth bag, and finally, I saw a few blank pieces of papyrus piled up behind the pile of rune paper.
I quickly took out the straw paper, and then threw Qiu Yan's cloth bag aside, I was full of joy to recall the correct way to draw the runes, but just as I was about to put pen to paper, I found that there was neither a pen nor paint in my hand.
Qiu Yan seemed to see what I was going to do, so she explained:
"In addition to drawing with cinnabar, rune paper can also be painted with blood!"
I glanced up at Qiu Yan and saw that she didn't seem to be joking, so I lowered my head and looked at my right hand again.
Blood, but there are ready-made!
So, I quickly dipped my index finger in my own blood and drew runes on the rune paper.
When Qiu Yan saw it, she asked in surprise:
"He Zimu, isn't this my soul fixing talisman? I used it just now, but it didn't work! ”
I didn't explain, and rushed towards Toast with the rune paper.
I spat on the back of the talisman paper, and then followed Qiu Yan's previous example, jumped up beside Toast, and finally slapped the soul fixing talisman on Toast's face the moment it fell.
It may be that I used enough strength in this shot, but the toast was so shot by me that it lost its center of gravity and deviated a few steps to the other side.
I stood aside with my hands in my arms, thinking to myself that Qiu Yan should have seen what the real Chenzhou Fu was!
But I didn't expect Toast to stand firm after a few steps, and then he slowly turned around and walked towards us step by step.
I was terrified!
That's not right!
Am I mistaken?
Or can't you paint with blood?
I watched in amazement as Toast got closer and closer, thinking back to every detail of the past.
Qiu Yan and Lao Lin Tou both shouted at me to leave quickly, thinking to myself that this time it was really over, and even the real Chenzhou Fu would not work.
But just as Toast approached me and I was about to dodge, I suddenly found that not all the lines on this Toast were black, and on closer inspection, there was a faint small white dot at the corners of those lines and at each end of the lines.
I dodged the toast and told Qiu Yan and Lao Lintou loudly about this discovery.
After listening to my words, the two of them also began to carefully observe the lines.
"It's hyphae!" After a while, the old forest head shouted loudly, "It's the mycelium of the corpse rotting fungus!" ”
